Suns come home. Finally. They have lost the last four by an average of 7 points against very tough competition and down 3 starters as well as some role players. Suns coach Ott sums it up well:

"How could we not be proud of that group?" Suns coach Jordan Ott said after Thursday's loss. "Six-game road trip. Tough games every single night. Bodies down. Young guys getting playing time there at the end of the game. We're going to be better for it. Super proud."

Meanwhile, the Bucks come in after a demoralizing blowout to the Jazz and missing superstar bulldozer, Giannis. Just what the doctor ordered?

I hope the players aren't glum about the recent losses. I think they have generally played well in most of these games but have hit bad luck or excellent opponents. If they just keep at it they should hit some better luck. This seems like a winnable game to say the least.

Maybe the strategy is to rest Grayson, Highsmith, and Royce this game and play them tomorrow against the Raps. Hopefully we have everyone for the Nuggets.

Crazy that we had such depth at the 3/4 and now we're thin there with all of those guys injured. Even Coffey's out.

You would think this is game between 2 lottery teams. Ugly game so far.

Bucks finally got the lead. I think we’re going win BUT we are fucking around right now when we should be up double digits, even with how short handed we are.


This would be a disgusting, inexcusable loss.

I'm at the point now where I start playing the young guys more and getting them some experience. This team isn't going to make any noise in the playoffs.

I also take a hard look at the Booker-Green backcourt and think about moving one or the other for a big man who can play both ends of the court.
